Since 2005, CMA Songwriters Series has presented the very best of Country Music’s songwriters, whose hits are known worldwide. The shows are intimate presentations where songwriters can exhibit their craft and share many of the stories behind the songs they have penned. Currently in its 14th season, CMA Songwriters Series has presented more than 100 shows in 17 cities.

His best-known hits include “Bless The Broken Road” (Rascal Flatts), “Cowboy Take Me Away” and “Ready To Run” (The Dixie Chicks), “Born To Fly” (Sara Evans), “One Of These Days” (Tim McGraw), and “Only Love” (Wynonna). In 2005, “Bless The Broken Road” won the Grammy for Best Country Song. Both Marcus and Levi joined fellow songwriters in October of 2017 throughout Europe as the CMA Songwriters Series expanded internationally.
